This Wednesday, the FBI is conducting searches at the home of Joe Biden, President of the United States, in the state of Delaware. The searches are related to the investigation into the improper handling of secret documents.

According to the White House, Biden accidentally kept documents from his time as vice president of Barack Obama. Unlike Trump, who resisted handing over hundreds of official documents after leaving the presidency, the current president says he has cooperated with authorities since confidential documents were discovered in a former office he used at a think tank in Washington.
Subsequent FBI searches also uncovered documents in Biden’s home in Wilmington and now in a property he owns in Rehoboth. The president’s attorney said the Justice Department began searching Rehoboth without “prior public notice.”
“Today’s searches are another step in a thorough and timely process by the Justice Department, which we will continue to support and fully facilitate. We will have more information at the end of today’s searches,” Bauer said.
